This work is aimed at determination of efficient capacity of an MVU-1500 air-and-screen grain cleaner at which extruder would process fed stock on the basis of designed multifactor experiment. On the basis of implementation of planning matrix, the mathematical model of the second order has been developed for determination of capacity of MVU-1500 air-and-screen grain cleaner upon classification of a heap of sunflower seeds. The maximum capacity of MVU-1500 air-and-screen grain cleaner upon classification of a heap of sunflower seeds in the section of optimum region with regard to feeding rate (C 0 ) of a heap of sunflower seeds into pneumatic channel, oscillation frequency (n) of cleaner shoe, and air flow rate (υ) in the pneumatic channel of final aspiration at zero level is 931 kg/h; the optimum parameters of these factors have been determined.
